Hey,

I was introduced to this site by the site administrator, alexp, who also just so happens to be my cousin.  I recently started working for him at his company in Berea, Ohio, and I will be helping him out with some maintenence and management with chooseyourstory.com.

What?  I'm not sure what the problem is here.

Rating multiple times on 3/16/2007 2:39:14 PM

Thanks for the welcome J3, Im glad to be on-board and helping alexp moderate the site and keep things running smoothly.

As for this bug, I talked to alex about it, and it turns out that what Rommel described does happen: you can rate a story mutliple times, but only the most recent rating is counted.  However, the number of ratings will increase the counter, but it won't factor in each and every rating into the overall rating calculation. 

Also, when you try to rate any page, you will see that ratings are affected by a standard deviation, so, for example, if a game's current overall rating is around a 6, and someone comes along and tosses it a '1' rating, that rating will most likely be thrown out, since it is outside of the standard deviation.

Quoting Blizzard Entertainment, this is "working as intended."


Rating multiple times on 3/14/2007 2:06:34 PM

I'm not quite sure what the problem is here.  When you rate a game more than once, only the most recent rating is counted?  Or the first? 

Why would you rate a game multiple times anyway?
